    Your preferred leather conditioner

    I use Pecard’s Leather Dressing (or Pecard’s Antique Leather Dressing on the 1800s original leather items I have) Like others have said, give it a day to absorb into the leather before use Plenty of good options out there. Find something you can access local if you use a lot.

    Speedo with trip odometer?

    88-89 also had trip odometers. Both my 88 crew cabs have them, but my 87 R10 doesn’t so I believe the start was 1988

    What are you looking for in one? I have a stripped down srw 4x4 one that I am considering getting rid of, as it is way down the project list, so will probably never get to. I’m over in SW MS

    fixing hood hinges

    Not sure in the quality of the reproduction hinges for the trucks, but if you want the originals rebuilt, send them to Willie at https://www.hoodhingerepair.com/hood-hinge-repair-process/ Had him rebuild the hood hinges and door hinges of my 67 Camaro. Way better than the reproduction parts...

    Gas to diesel

    Truck was run about 10 years with a 700r4 with roughly the same mileage, only going back to the 4 speed when the 700r4 went out (the 700 was used when it was installed) On a NA 6.2, I would worry, but with the Banks, the engines seem to do a lot better

    Quadrajet Spacers

    If you want more than just the thick gasket, look for a q-jet heat shield, GM pn 3969837. (Quick pic from the net, as I’m not home at moment)

    Gas to diesel

    My 84 K10 has 33s and 3.42 gears, and a very early Banks set up on the 6.2. (I tried to buy this truck new in Nov 1983, not knowing a buddy had ordered it, and the dealership was waiting on the turbo stuff from Banks) I regularly get 24-25 mpg with no overdrive. Going to swap the 4 speed out...

    Gas to diesel

    If it is a daily with very little towing, the 6.2/6.5 would be an easy swap. If you plan to pull a 65-100hp tractor regularly, I’d suggest a Cummins swap. Do you have anything constructive to say? You seem to grumble about most things on here.

    Gas to diesel

    Are you wanting to go to a 6.2/6.5 GM diesel? Or Cummins swap? I’ve done both several times. What is your intended use for the truck?

    Old man constantly asked to drop his truck.Any stock height C10s left in the world??

    I lowered my ‘81 around 1985 to be different, and got lots of stares, especially being in a small town on the Louisiana / Mississippi border. That was the good old days before “kits” were available. Had Trailmaster make a set of 4” drop front coils, cut the bump stops off the lower control...

    Quadrajet Primary Shaft Bushings

    That’s a lot of work to machine plugs when, once removed, we tapped the primary ones for 10-32 plugs and Marine Tex, or Devcon epoxy the threads. Even Cliff has suggested that over the years. Guess I’m a dinosaur though, as I was doing that in the 80s and early 90s.

    Quadrajet Primary Shaft Bushings

    You thread and use pipe plugs on the casting plugs? Or put epoxy over them? Have bushinged many Q-jets over the years, but only one or two in the last 15 or so years. Glad to see others still doing it.

    Has anyone received door panels or sun visors from USA1 since March 2023?

    IMHO, continually telling lies to the customer about delivery times is not a very good way to run a business. Taking other people’s money and sitting on it 15 months before delivering is not a very good way to run a business. While I try to support the little man / US businesses, Honesty goes...

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    Wife had an L67 in her 97 Regal GS. Buddy had one in a Gran Prix. They were great engines and my wife’s got 25-27mpg with me running it pretty hard sometimes.

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    I had thought about a Camaro Series II 3800, with the top end from a 3800 with a supercharger. At the time I didn’t have access to the fab setup I do now, so without milling the throttle body would have been in the cowl.
